My mother is dying and I'm racing to get to her - no point to this thread.

That's it really.

We're abroad and she's in the NE England. She has had a massive stroke and I'm alone, racing to the airport to get a flight I might miss.

I want to see her before she goes. She's no conscious.

My sister is with her.

My heart is broken into one million piece. No need to respond - I'm just alone (husband back at resort with the kids) so just chatting I suppose. I've had an hour sleep overnight, I look like an actual muppet (crying eyes).

She is 73 and a fire cracker. She's remarkable. My heart is broken.

She's gone. Peacefully this morning with her sister holding her hand.

We're ok x

I'm so sorry OP. That she went peacefully and surrounded by love in her final days is all we can ever ask for in these circumstances x
